 Catch works quite nicely without any command line options at all - but for those times when you want greater control the following options are available.
 Click one of the followings links to take you straight to that option - or scroll on to browse the available options.

+Catch colours output for terminals, but omits colouring when it detects that
+output is being sent to a pipe. This is done to avoid interfering with automated
+processing of output.

+`--use-colour yes` forces coloured output, `--use-colour no` disables coloured
+output. The default behaviour is `--use-colour auto`.
